I have no heater running or chiller in my tank. The temp ranges from 79 - 84 ( not by choice). I would like to put in a dual stage controller to control a fan over my sump and a heater in order to keep it a little more stable.

In the fall to spring, 76-78 F.

In the summer, try to keep it at 80-83 F.

Was running 77-82 without the fans. Now 77-79 even with halides on. I am thinking about a controller because the fans are noisy and I don't want them on all the time

Nice. I can't get my below 82 in the summer with halides and fans. Is about 80 now with fans.

76F pretty much constant. I don,t want it higher because some of my coral don't like higher temperature, especialy non-photosynthetic corals.
